My domain is: not relevant
I ran this command: certbot
It produced this output:
An unexpected error occurred:
ValueError: Entry points must be listed in groups
Please see the logfile ‘certbot.log’ for more details.
My operating system is (include version):
Linux Debian 8 (jessie)
My web server is (include version):
not relevant (Apache 2)
My hosting provider, if applicable, is:
I can login to a root shell on my machine (yes or no, or I don’t know):
yes
I’m using a control panel to manage my site (no, or provide the name and version of the control panel):
no
certbot.log file holds these information:
Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/certbot", line 9, in <module> load_entry_point('certbot==0.8.1', 'console_scripts', 'certbot')() File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/certbot/main.py", line 700, in main plugins = plugins_disco.PluginsRegistry.find_all() File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/certbot/plugins/disco.py", line 173, in find_all for entry_point in entry_points: File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/pkg_resources/__init__.py", line 706, in iter_entry_points entries = dist.get_entry_map(group) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/pkg_resources/__init__.py", line 2577, in get_entry_map self._get_metadata('entry_points.txt'), self File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/pkg_resources/__init__.py", line 2311, in parse_map raise ValueError("Entry points must be listed in groups")
I’m completely lost here, I don’t have any knowledge about python. I installed certbot as described on eff.org (Apache2, Debian 8; backports repository for jessie). Anyone here who could shed some light on this?
Update:
Even trying to do a “manual” install with “certbot-auto” from eff.org, like described on github, failed with
SystemError: Bad call flags in PyCFunction_Call. METH_OLDARGS is no longer supported!
So I think maybe my python version (2.7.9) is too young for letsencrypt?!
